Haven't watched that show in years. No shock he was a bit of an idiot at it since he is probably used to people doing stuff for him and doing whatever he says. From the sounds of it the 'brains' team is full of people with book smarts but not people smarts.

Great line about how only the Marlin's president would vote out the strongest player from his own team!

In the very next tribal council, with David already gone, the rest of the tribe voted out the strongest player from their own team. The two players on the brains tribe who had the least in people skills were voted out.

Garrett followed the textbook on how not to get smart people to like you. J'Tia singlehandedly blew their chance at immunity, then destroyed all their food... and Garrett convinced them to vote himself out instead and was so oblivious to this that he didn't play the immunity idol he'd found.

I'm convinced that in my lifetime (give or take 35-45 more years) I'm going to see some version The Running Man broadcast.

We should be so lucky.

I only recently realized that the fat opera-singing hunter in "Running Man" was the same guy who played Grossberger in that legendary Pryor/Wilder comedy, "Stir Crazy". He sang in both films. Voice like a giant fat angel, he had.
